General Conference

I've noticed recently that after every General Conference there is a talk or two that everyone talks about. In October last year it was the one about hope by Pres. Uchdorf. A few conferences back everyone was talking about Pres. Eyring's talk on the journal in which he wrote about how he saw the hand of God in his life every day. I guess I can't remember others specifically but as I watched this General Conference I wondered which talk it would be that I would hear referenced a lot over the next 6 months. I think it will be either Elder Uchdorf's again on discipleship or Elder Bednar's talk on the temple. It could also be the one by Elder Hales about the economic times and how we need to learn to live within our means. Which one stood out to you?

I haven't posted for a while and now we're about to go out of town for spring break so I thought I better post a little message so I don't lose all my 3 readers. :) I've been busy the last week but I also felt a little guilty after Elder Ballard's mention of wasting time on the internet.

"...don’t allow yourself to be caught up in the time-wasting, mind-numbing things like television soap operas or surfing the Internet."

So it's been a week and I think I'm past my guilt now. (Ha! Ha! For those of you who really know me you know that "Guilt" is my middle name.) I just need to make sure I don't spend too much time blogging and reading other blogs, I don't have to cut it out altogether, right?! Anyway, we're heading out for a few days for spring break. We're going to Midway, Utah. It should be fun and relaxing but I probably won't be blogging for a while again.

The most important thing for me this week is ... the Marathon! I'm excited. I had been feeling pretty nervous about it but when I was running on Saturday I realized that I need to just relax and enjoy the experience. I hope I'll be able to just run and not worry about my time, just enjoy the feeling of accomplishment that I will have at the finish line. I can't wait!
